摘要
如何在保护数据隐私的同时进行可用性的数据挖掘已成为热点问题。鉴于在很多实际应用场景中,很难找到一个真正可信的第三方对用户的敏感数据进行处理,文中首次提出了一种支持本地化差分隐私技术的聚类方案——LDPK-modes(Local Differential Privacy K-modes)。与传统的基于中心化差分隐私的聚类算法相比,其不再需要一个可信的第三方对数据进行收集和处理,而由用户担任数据隐私化的工作,极大地降低了第三方窃取用户隐私的可能性。用户使用满足本地d-隐私(带有距离度量的本地差分隐私技术)定义的随机响应机制对敏感数据进行扰动,第三方收集到用户扰动数据后,恢复其统计特征,生成合成数据集,并进行k-modes聚类。在聚类过程中,将数据集上频繁出现的特征分配给初始聚类中心点,进一步提高了聚类结果的可用性。理论分析和实验结果表明了LDPK-modes的隐私性和聚类可用性。
How to conduct usability data mining while protecting data privacy has become a hot issue.In many practical scena-rios,it is difficult to find a trusted third party to process the sensitive data.This paper proposes the first locally differentially private k-modes mechanism(LDPK-modes)under this distributed scenario.Differing from standard differentially private clustering mechanisms,the proposed mechanism doesn’t need any trusted third party to collect and preprocess users data.Users disturb their data using a random response mechanism that satisfies the definition of local d-privacy(local differential privacy with distance metric).When the third party collects the user’s disturbed data,it restores its statistical features and generates a synthetic data set.The frequent attributes on the data set are assigned to the initial cluster center and then start k-modes clustering.Theoretical analysis shows that the proposed algorithm satisfies local d-privacy.Experimental results show that our proposal can well preserve the quality of clustering results without a trusted third-party data collector.
